Nitrogen → tert-butyl 4-[(6-cyano-5-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-1H-isochromen-1-yl)methyl]piperazine-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl 4-[(6-bromo-5-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-1H-isochromen-1-yl)methyl]piperazine-1-carboxylate (50 mg, 0.11 mmol), Pd(PPh3)4 (20 mg) and Zn(CN)2 (26 mg, 0.23 mmol) in 5 mL of anhydrous DMF was to 110° C. at N2 atmosphere overnight. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, extracted by EtOAc, washed by water then by brine. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified with prep-TLC to afford tert-butyl 4-[(6-cyano-5-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-1H-isochromen-1-yl)methyl]piperazine-1-carboxylate.
